Intaglio Collagraph and Monoprint Hybrid... (combining two printing techniques)

In this video I demonstrate how I created a hybrid print using an intaglio collagraph with a monoprint. I use a plastic perspex plate for a monoprint and 7 different collagraph plates fitting together like a jigsaw.

I use a bit of acrylic gesso to create interesting textures as well as some tissue paper and wood glue.
